The Operation Room should have the information of oncoming Plan, diagnosis and the procedure of surgical operation for all patients listed for the whole week. And the Anesthetist should check/visit the patient one day before the operation, in order to determine what kind of anesthesia would be employed.
The information which you provided could be due to communication problem or misunderstanding. So, please contact the responsible doctors, anesthetist, and the OR as well.
We are very glad to see your post about the patient's situation online again.
Best wishes,
